Ian Napa Appreciation Thread

Napa with a dig is a dangerous fighter. Unfortunately (in 99% of cases) he'd need a bag of rohypnol to knock anyone out. He has learned the game well and is a very effective operator. I find a lot of his fights boring but then again I have no interest in brit domestic level bantamweights. That said, hes very good at the level and his performance against Ballone was brilliant. He's a great little 'working mans fighter' limited and all that but very game and makes the most of what he has. I don't begrudge him any success that comes his way. A very good pro. Part of the fibre of the game.

He'll box the ears off Bouzaine and Hyland. He's the best BW at Euro level that I have seen but the talent in that division is elsewhere. I'd have no problem with him getting a crack at a world title. He's paid his due at Euro level and earned rankings so why the **** not?

 

Hyland needs 10 more fights before a Euro challenge. I bought into the hype abit on the kid but after seeing him perform really poor against a no name Ukrainian in his last fight he is certainly not ready, the result got booed because most people in the building thought that the opponent deserved at least a draw and a few others thought Paul lost. The lad has talent but is still in development. I would hate to think that because of the weak domestic division he got rushed into a loss.


Napa vs Munyai would be the fight I would like to see.

 

He is our own Floyd Mayweather, apart from the power!

 

And he is not a total twat.

 

Unfortunately not onto world level.

He certainly isn't beating Hasegawa or Moreno.

 

Is Dapa not dropping down a weight soon :huh

 

well he said he would drop a weight but only when he is fighting world class operators...main reason he is at 118 is because the domestic comp is far stronger than fly or super fly.

at bantam you have/had power, haskins, munyai, booth even moffet ,

i mean 2 years ago there was nobody to fight at flyweight or super fly except maybe edwards. but he has alot of incocisdency's

but he will go down in wieght at euro level now maybe 3 fights or a world title fight.

 

i think toney is more accurate
